Event description
Would you just like to get to know your garden soil more intimately?
Join Adam from Very Edible Gardens to learn the basics of what constitutes soil, and how to improve it. You can bring a small sample of your own garden soil along as we pull out the microscopes, pH kit and use our fingers to help you investigate your soil for structure, pH and biology. We also cover dealing with contaminated soils, and general strategies for good soil including mineral and organic fertilisers, compost and worms.
